This adds support for CIRCUITPY_WIFI_SSID and CIRCUITPY_WIFI_PASSWORD
in `/.env`. When both are defined, CircuitPython will attempt to
connect to the network even when user code isn't running. If the
user code attempts to a network with the same SSID, it will return
immediately. Connecting to another SSID will disconnect from the
auto-connected network. If the user code initiates the connection,
then it will be shutdown after user code exits. (Should match <8
behavior.)
This PR also reworks the default displayio terminal. It now supports
a title bar TileGrid in addition to the (newly renamed) scroll area.
The default title bar is the top row of the display and is positioned
to the right of the Blinka logo when it is enabled. The scroll area
is now below the Blinka logo.
The Wi-Fi auto-connect code now uses the title bar to show its
state including the IP address when connected. It does this through
the "standard" OSC control sequence `ESC ] 0 ; <s> ESC \` where <s>
is the title bar string. This is commonly supported by terminals
so it should work over USB and UART as well.

This breaks the translation dependency to all of the other objects
and therefore speeds up subsequent builds. Now, even when the big
translate() function is inlined in the header, it only needs to be
optimized once.
This allows you to list and explore connected USB devices. It
only stubs out the methods to communicate to endpoints. That will
come in a follow up once TinyUSB has it. (It's in progress.)

nRF CircuitPython boards will now provide the file transfer
service defined here: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BLE_File_Transfer
USB capable boards will only advertise if previously bonded to a
device or if the reset button is pressed during the fast blue
flashes on start up. When pressed, the board will restart again but
the blue period will not flash.
Boards without USB will always advertise.
When previously bonded, the advertisement is private so that no
other peers can connect. If advertising publicly, the tx power is
lowered to reduce the likelihood of bonding from a distance.
This PR also fixes issues with loading identities of bonded peers
so that our address can now be resolved and we can resolve others'
addresses when scanning.
This also removes the need to pin share because we don't use the
status LED while user code is running.
The status flashes fallback to the HW_STATUS LED if no RGB LED is
present. Each status has a unique blink pattern as well.
One caveat is the REPL state. In order to not pin share, we set the
RGB color once. PWM and single color will be shutoff immediately but
DotStars and NeoPixels will hold the color until the user overrides
it.

Unify USB-related makefile var and C def as CIRCUITPY_USB.
Always define it as 0 or 1, same as all other settings.
USB_AVAILABLE was conditionally defined in supervisor.mk,
but never actually used to #ifdef USB-related code.
Loosely related to #4546
The interrupt may have a higher priority than the serial output's
(USB) interrupt and may never make room. This makes prints from
interrupts (like the BLE event calls) best effort for what can be
queued up. The rest of the output will be dropped.
This switches stage2 to C and uses Jinja to change the C code based
on flash settings from https://github.com/adafruit/nvm.toml. It
produces the fastest settings for the given set of external flashes.
Flash size is no longer hard coded so switching flashes with similar
capabilities but different sizes should *just work*.
This PR also places "ITCM" code in RAM to save the XIP cache for
code execution. Further optimization is possible. A blink code.py
still requires a number of flash fetches every blink.
Fixes#4041
Instead of counting words in make, which is slightly awful, notice that
possible_devices is local to external_flash.c, so we can declare the array
with an automatic bound, and then get the count as the element-count
(MP_ARRAY_SIZE) of the array.
Since EXTERNAL_FLASH_DEVICE_COUNT is no longer a global macro, switch
a few sites to using EXTERNAL_FLASH_DEVICES in `#if` checks instead.
.. however, the number of endpoints is only set for SAMD (8).
Other ports need to set the value. Otherwise, the build will show
the message
```
Unable to check whether maximum number of endpoints is respected
```
The font is missing many characters and the build needs the space.
We can optimize font storage when we get a good font.
The serial output will work as usual.
In time, we should transition interrupt driven background tasks out of the
overall run_background_tasks into distinct background callbacks,
so that the number of checks that occur with each tick is reduced.
